Agreed. Just to add to that point I hate the oldies that give you weird looks for wearing socks and sliders. They’re not bloody flip flops or sandals ffs - they’re meant to be worn with socks! 

Socks and sliders is the worst! You'd get beaten for wearing them when I was a lad. Weird how things change

I'd just like to make it clear that I am not in the pay of "Big Sock", or the Sock Marketing Board.

 

The views expressed were my own.

25m, add ons and a player for a 20 year old near entirely untested winger when they've got dubious finances, piles of debt, no midfield, a shit defence yet Moura, Son and Kane (for now) up front? 

 

Doesn't sound like the best decision making. 

Spurs desperately requiring defensive stability put dropping money on keepers and wingers.

The Premier League are to implement a change to the way the Video Assistant Referee interprets the offside law in the new season following the success of the system in Euro 2020.

VAR has been a major source of debate since its introduction to the League, with a number of contentious calls made by using the system.


One of the main areas of concern is the offside law and the tendency to rule goals out due to marginal calls.

Leicester City saw James Maddison denied a goal against Tottenham Hotspur back in December due to such a call.

That call, however, might go a different way in the new season, with ESPN reporting that a "tolerance level" will be added to offside calls from August.

It means that a conclusive result must be produced by the final image during a VAR check in order for offside to be given and a goal to be ruled out.


Fans will also no longer be shown the screen with the lines that works out the offside call.

The tolerance level was used successfully during Euro 2020 in the summer, but there is another element that will not be replicated in the Premier League.


The tournament also saw a dedicated VAR official for offsides in order to speed up the process of checking a goal and avoid some of the lengthy checks seen in the Premier League since the introduction of VAR.


However, it is claimed that the lack of qualified assistant referees means that it will be impossible to implement during every Premier League game this season.

While the speed of VAR during Euro 2020 may not be the same during the Premier League, the introduction of the tolerance level may eliminate some of the marginal offsides seen over the last two seasons.
